Product news

In order to keep abreast of the work being done in differing fields and to provide our users with an insight into the work that others are using Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis for, NanoSight has recently compiled a review of the third party papers produced between 2010 and 2012.

Using data from 450 of the over 800 papers currently published this document aims to offer an oversight of the technique and how it works as well as a comprehensive review of the following subject areas:

• Protein Aggregation
• Virology and Vaccine Development
• Nanoparticle Toxicity and Environmental Impact
• Drug Delivery and Targeting
• Exosomes and Microvesicle Research
• Nanoparticle Production

Assay AssemblyAssay Assembly is technique used in drug discovery to develop assays to test the cytotoxicity, genotoxicity, or other activities of a compound on a cell. Assay assembly requires chip assembly, a delivery system and a detection and analysis method. Beneficial features of assay kits or automated systems include high-throughput, high speed and sensitivity and low signal to noise ratio.Particle CharacterizationParticle characterization instruments are used to determine particle size distribution, shape, surface area, zeta potential, density and porosity of particles and materials. Multiple tecchniques are available for determining particle size, shape and count including dynamic light scattering (DLS), laser diffraction, electrozone (Coulter technique), imaging particle analysis and single particle optical sensing. Determine the density of your material with a gas pycnometer or examine its surface area and porosity with gas adsorption analyzers and mercury porosimeters. Find the best particle characterization instruments in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.NanoparticlesNanoparticles are between 1-100nm in size. Nanoparticles can be used for a wide variety of applications including biomedical, catalysis and electronics.
